In times of crisis, philanthropy and giving programs can often provide support to relieve some burdens for the communities they support. Corporate foundations and giving programs are invited to a peer-led discussion on the methods and processes of scorecards as a tool in responding to national or local disasters. This roundtable conversation will be a space to connect and learn about the challenges and opportunities in corporate philanthropy during natural and/or man-made disasters.  

This conversation will focus on:  

  • How can corporate giving be responsive in their grantmaking to offer immediate relief and balance with ongoing giving programs?
  • What are some tools and tips that peers can share about how they approach decision-making – both for natural and man-made crises?
